ABSTRACT

Many buildings with multiple levels nowadays are designed with columns that
floating for both aesthetic purposes and to increase the amount of space available
for movement in parking lots. However, compared to regular buildings, these are
more likely to sustain damage during an earthquake in a high-risk seismic zone.
This study uses Etabs software to analyze a multistorey building (G+10 & G+15)
on a floating column of a high-rise structure with and without isolators in a highly
seismic zone. Four variants are developed, including a floating column for G+10
and G+15 stories that stands without isolators and with isolators. All four of the
models are used with the linear static approach. Compare all of the model results
that were acquired in the form of earthquake parameters using linear static
analysis.

CHAPTER 1

INTRODUCTION
1.1 GENERAL
Present day strategies for seismic plan (since the 1970s) permit structural auxiliary
architects to structure new structures with the point of unsurprising and malleable conduct in
serious earthquake tremors, so as to forestall collapse and death toll. Anyway some controlled
harm is normal, which may bring about the structure being harmed beyond financial fix after
serious shaking. Seismic protection of structures has seen noteworthy advances in ongoing
decades, because of the improvement of new advances and propelled materials. It has just been
as of late perceived worldwide that it is conceivable to plan affordable structures which can
oppose extreme tremors with constrained or irrelevant basic harm. Base confinement and
harm-safe structures are two alternative approaches of designing structures to avoid permanent
harm in extreme tremors. Base disconnection requires the structure to be isolated starting from
the earliest stage seclusion gadgets which can scatter vitality. This is demonstrated innovation
which may add a little to the underlying expense of the structure, yet will end up being more
affordable in the long haul. Harm safe structure is growing quickly, in a few distinct structures.
These incorporate shaking dividers or shaking outlines, with or without post-tensioning, and an
assortment of vitality scattering gadgets linked to the framework in various manners. If not as
of now the situation, harm safe structure will before long become not any more costly than
regular plan for new structures.
A column should be a vertical part beginning from established foundation level and
transferring the heap to the ground. The term floating sectioncolumn is additionally a vertical
component which at its lower level lays on a beam which is a horizontal part. Structures with
columns segments that hang or float buoy on bars at a beam of the intermediate story and don't
go right to the established foundation and have discontinuities in the load transfer path.
The beams thus transfer the heap load to different column segments underneath it. Such
column sections the load was considered as a point load. The past Earthquake information
gives enough proof to conduct of various sorts of structures under various seismic conditions
and establishment angles has become stuff for Engineers and Scientists. This has given

ISOLATORS AND WITHOUT ISOLATORS USING ETABS SOFTWARE

different kinds of creative procedures to spare structures from seismic impacts. Among those,
Base Isolation is one of the ongoing procedures. The fundamental point of base separation is to
give adaptability and dispersal of vitality by fusing the disconnected gadgets alleged isolators,
which is given between the establishment and the super structure. Accordingly, base
disengagement basically separates the structure from the beginning seismic excitation. The
utilization of adaptable layer by base seclusion frameworks at the base of the structure will
permit relative relocations between the establishment and the superstructure. Expansion of
detachment layer extends the key timeframe of the structure.

1.2 DESCRIPTION OF AN FLOATINGCOLUMN

A section should be a vertical part beginning from established foundation level and transfer the
load heap to the ground. The term skimmed floating section is likewise a vertical component
which (because of building configuration/site circumstance) at its lower level (end Level) lays
on a pillar which is a horizontal part. The beam thus transfer the heap to different segmental
column belowit.

. Fig.1.1 Hanging or folating columns

There are numerous activities wherein floating column sections are embraced,
particularly over the ground floor, where move braces are utilized, with the goal that more
open space is accessible in the ground floor. These open spaces might be required for get
together corridor or stopping reason. The exchange braces must be planned and point by point

appropriately, particularly in earth shudder zones. The section is a focused burden on the pillar
which underpins it. Most definitely, the segment is frequently accepted stuck at the base and is
along these lines taken as a point load on the exchange pillar. STAAD Pro, ETABS and
SAP2000 can be utilized to do the examination of this kind of structure. Gliding segments are
able enough to convey gravity stacking however move support must be of satisfactory
measurements (Stiffness) with negligible redirection.

1.3 THEORY OF BASE ISOLATION

The fundamental idea behind seismic detaching is to isolate the structure from the
trembling floor while safeguarding it from the harmful impacts of an earthquake by
adding a flexible, adjustable support. A layer of minimal lateral stiffness is presented
between the structure and the constructed foundation by the base limited isolation
framework. The structure's characteristic natural period is longer than its predetermined
base normal period because of its isolated isolation layer. This time extension may result
in a decrease in pseudo-speed, which will cause the earthquake to activate the structure's
power. Through both the diversion of seismic energy and the absorption of seismic
vitality, the base isolator in a structure protects it against tremor power

LITERATURE REVIEW
Seismic tremor reaction of multistory building outlines is incorporated into the normal
sections of the current literature writing review. A section of the literature focused on
strengthening the existing structures in seismically vulnerable areas.

Jayashri Sarode1 and Mr.Amol.S. Pote2[1](2016)Steel-concrete composite shafted beams

are broadly utilized in development of structures and extension. Composite bar under
applied burdens are frequently liable to join activity of bowing and vertical shear. So as to
structure composite shaft reliably, it is important to grow new models for investigation of
dislodging, story shear and story float. The coasting segment is a vertical component which
is lay on shaft, these segments are without establishment. The coasting section lays on bar
which is a R.C.C Beam Girder. The support is as pillar and the segment load goes about as
a point load on that move shaft. In this workshop report the composite bar is utilized in
Floating section structure. The composite pillar is exposed to skimming section; due to this
we use the quality of composite bar. Three Models are think about in this course they are
Normal structure, Floating section structure with R.C.C Beam Girder, Floating segment
structure with composite bar brace. The examinations of structure are completed with the
assistance of Etabs.

PratyushMalaviya , Saura2[2](2014) A sectioned column should be a vertical part
beginning from establishment level and moving the heap to the ground. The phrase
"gliding segment" also refers to a vertical component that, at its lowest level (end level),
rests on a shaft, which is a flat section due to building layout or site conditions. Thus, the
heap is moved to various regions beneath it by the shafts. In order to increase the amount
of available open space on the ground floor, move braces are used in a number of
activities involving drifting sections, especially over the ground floor. These open areas
may be necessary for meeting areas or as a place to stop. It is important to properly plan
and categorize the exchange supports, especially in areas where there are earthquakes.

S.B. Waykule[3](2016)Incurrent scenario, multi-story structures in urban communities are

required to have section free space because of deficiency of room, populace and furthermore
for stylish and practical prerequisites. For this structures are given gliding sections at least one
story. These gliding segments are exceptionally disadvantageous in a structure worked in
seismically dynamic zones. The seismic tremor powers that are created at various floor levels
in a structure should be conveyed down along the stature to the ground by the most limited
way. Deviation or brokenness in this heap move way brings about lackluster showing of the
structure. The conduct of a structure during tremors relies basically upon its general shape, size
and calculation, notwithstanding how the quake powers are conveyed to the ground. Numerous
structures with an open ground story expected for stopping crumbled or were seriously harmed
in Gujarat during the 2001 Bhuj seismic tremor.
Isha Rohilla1, S.M. Gupta2, Babita Saini3[4]Incurrent times, multi-story structures in urban
communities are required to have section free space because of deficiency of room, populace
and furthermore for stylish and practical necessities. For this structures are given skimming
sections at least one story. These skimming sections are exceptionally disadvantageous in a
structure worked in seismically dynamic territories. The seismic tremor powers that are created
at various floor levels in a structure should be conveyed down along the tallness to the ground
by the most brief way. Deviation or brokenness in this heap move way brings about lackluster
showing of the structure. In this paper, the basic situation of drifting segment in vertically
sporadic structures has been talked about for G+5 and G+7 RC structures for zone II and zone
V. Likewise the impact of size of pillars and sections conveying the heap of gliding segment
has been surveyed. The reaction of building, for example, story float, story relocation and story
shear has been utilized to assess the outcomes acquired utilizing ETABS programming.
Sunil Shirol1, Dr.Jagadish G. Kori2[5]A considerable lot of the structures exposed to quake
endure extreme harm. Subsequently it is important to keep the structures from the tremor. Base
seclusion is one such sort of technique used to forestall the harm to the structure. The agony
standard behind base detachment is to isolate foundation from superstructure. In present
examination a G+6 story model with and without stone work infill are thought of. Lead elastic

bearing and grating sort isolators were utilized. The infill was displayed as single corner to
corner swagger. The static and reaction range examination are done utilizing ETABS-2016.
From the examination it was reasoned that arrangement of isolators expanded the normal
timeframe which kills the likelihood of reverberation. The base shear and the story floats got
decreased fundamentally while the uprooting expanded which is because of the adaptability
conferred to the structure. The thought of infill activity expanded the base shear while the
relocation and entomb story floats indicated diminishing pattern.
V. Harshitha1, E. Arunakanthi2[6]As of recent years impressive consideration has been paid
to innovative work of auxiliary control gadgets with specific accentuation on moderation of
wind and seismic reaction of structures. Numerous vibration-control estimates like latent,
dynamic, semi-dynamic and half and half vibration control strategies have been created.
Inactive vibration control keeps the structure to remain basically versatile during huge tremors
and has central recurrence lower than the two its fixed base recurrence and the predominant
frequencies of ground movement. Base disengagement is a uninvolved vibration control
framework. Free vibration and constrained vibration examination was done on the surrounded
structure by the utilization of PC program SAP 2000 v15.0.1. The aftereffects of the free
vibration investigation like timespan, recurrence, mode shape and modular mass taking an
interest proportions of the encircled structure were discovered. Constrained vibration
examination (non-direct time history investigation) was done to decide the reaction of
encircled structures and to discover the vibration control effectiveness of surrounded structures
utilizing lead elastic bearing. Confinement direction in this examination are applied to the
symmetric and deviated structures. Presentation of even adaptability at the base aides in
appropriate vitality dispersal at the base level accordingly decreasing the seismic interest of the
super structure to be considered during plan.
TUN MYINT AUNG1, TIN TIN WIN2[7]In this examination, investigation and structure of
four story fortified solid structure and it's disengagements which is situated in seismic zone 4.
At that point correlation of examination results between fixed base condition and detached
state of the structure due to multi course seismic tremor movements, for example, level and
vertical quake. Initially, static examination is utilized for fixed base condition because of
gravity unfactored burden to structure the helical spring. Besides range investigation is just
used for even seismic tremor and time history examination is utilized for both flat quake and

ANALYTICAL STUDY ON FLOATING COLUMN OF HIGH RISE BUILDING WITH
ISOLATORS AND WITHOUT ISOLATORS USING ETABS SOFTWARE

vertical quake individually. At last, correlation of the investigation results, for example,
powers, relocations, floats, increasing speeds and shear at different degrees of building are
introduced. The static time of fixed base is 0.4 sec. As per the base detached idea, base
secluded period is extended to 0.8 sec, I sec and 1.2sec for plan quake level. The outcomes
which are particularly contrasted with base segregated (1.2 sec) and fixed base structure show
that the removals of base disconnected is more than fixed base structure yet other seismic
reaction, for example, quickening of base secluded is altogether diminished contrasted with
fixed base just as base confined structure has limit with regards to lessening of part power of
the structure with fixed base structure.
Shaikh TabassumSayyad 1, Vijaykumar Bhusare2[8]The estimation of quake movements at
the site of a structure is the most significant period of seismic plan just as retrofit of a structure.
In traditional strategies utilized in basic investigation, it is expected that, the movement in the
establishment level of structure is equivalent to ground free handle movement. This
supposition that is right just for the structures laying on rock or firm soils. For the structures
developed on delicate soils, establishment movement is generally not quite the same as the free
field movement and a shaking part brought about by the help adaptability on level movement
of establishment has been included. The expression ‗soil-structure cooperation' might be
characterized as impact of the conduct of soil promptly underneath and around the
establishment on the reaction of soil-structure exposed to either static or dynamic loads‖. An
establishment is a methods by which superstructure interfaces with hidden soil or rock. Under
static conditions, by and large just vertical heaps of structure should be move to supporting
stone. In seismic condition, the heaps forced on an establishment from a structure under
seismic excitation can extraordinarily surpass the static vertical burdens as even produce
elevate; moreover, there will be flat powers and conceivably development at establishment
level. The dirt and rock at site have explicit attributes that can essentially enhance the
approaching seismic tremor movements going from the quake source.
Atul N.Kolekar1, Y.P.Pawar2, Dr. C. P. Pise3 [May 2017][9]The ongoing history of tremors
have shown that if the structures are not appropriately planned and built with required quality
may make incredible harm structures. This reality has come about in to guarantee wellbeing
against tremor powers of tall structures henceforth, there is have to decide seismic reactions of
such structure for planning quake safe structures via conveying seismic examination of

structure. In the current work dynamic examination of G+12 RC multi-celebrated confined

structure considering for Koyna and Bhuj tremor is completed by reaction range investigation
and time history examination and reactions of such structure are relatively concentrated with
the assistance of SAP2000 programming. Double cross chronicles (for example koyna and
Bhuj) have been utilized to create distinctive worthy measures (base shear, story uprooting,
story float). From the outcomes it is suggested that time history examination ought to be
proceeded as it predicts the auxiliary reaction more precisely than the reaction range
investigation. Sucker Analysis is additionally performed for a similar structure and from results
it is discovered that building is seismically sheltered.
Sumana C V 1, Raghu M E 2[August 2016][10] Building outlines on inclining ground
(bumpy territories) one of the components which lessens the limit of the structure because of
the way that the section in the ground story are of various statures which prompts mix of short
segment and long segment. Alongside this if building has an open ground story, it is frequently
instigated in structures either because of customer necessity or inappropriate arranging. On the
off chance that this structure is exposed to quake which turns out to be more powerless in
extreme zones. The current relative investigation made an endeavor to comprehend the impact
of quake load on building outlines on inclining ground with fixed base and separated base
under extreme zone. The calculation models of common second opposing edge was created in
SAP2000 as 3D space casing to convey the dynamic direct seismic investigation according to
IS 1893 Part (I) - 2002 individually. The vertical and flat solidness of lead elastic isolator is
intended for greatest gravity burden and plan dislodging of the structure and qualities were
doled out for confined models. This investigation may assist with understanding the impact of
base separation under seismic powers, the effective level and security of the lead elastic
isolator for various story structures with base confinement on various slanting ground.
Investigation results shows decrease in base shear and story speeding up values for base
segregated structure. The relocation, story float and timespan of base secluded structure is
expanded when contrasted with fixed base structure on various slant. Near outcomes shows
that the effective degree of base detachment is at the establishment.

4.3 SOFTWARE

The product utilized in this program is Etabs 2016. ETABS is a particular reason PC program
grew explicitly for building frameworks. The idea of unique reason programs for building type
structures was presented over 35 years back [R. W. Clough, et al., 1963]. In any case, the
requirement for specific reason programs, for example, ETABS, has never been more obvious
as Structural Engineers set up nonlinear static and dynamic investigation as a regular
occurrence and utilize the more noteworthy PC power accessible today to make bigger, more
unpredictable expository models.

With ETABS, making and altering a model, executing the investigation, plan, and
enhancing the structure are totally done through a solitary interface that is totally incorporated
inside Microsoft Windows. Graphical presentations of the outcomes, including ongoing
showcase of time-history removals, are handily delivered. Printed yield, to a printer or to a
document, for chose components or for all components, is likewise effortlessly created. This
program gives a quantum jump forward in the manner models are made, adjusted, broke down
and structured.

The systematic capacities of ETABS are similarly as ground-breaking, speaking to the

most recent exploration in numerical procedures and arrangement calculations.

CHAPTER 5
RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
In this chapter, the conduct of each model is caught and the outcomes are arranged.
The variety of methodical boundaries like story horizontal uprooting, story float, Story
solidness, story firmness, regular timeframe & base-shear has been read for equal static
technique. The consequences of the considerable number of models are watched and the most
reasonable model is chosen by looking at the aftereffects of each model.

5.1 STORY DISPLACEMENT

It is absolute total dislodged displacement of the story regarding ground and there
is most extreme permissible breaking limit endorsed in IS codes for structures.

The tables below list the lateral displacements, along both the X -Y axes, computed for
the G+20 storey building models using the equivalent static method (EQS).

5.1.2 Observations and Discussions on Storey Displacement

We can observe that the displacement rises with storey height by comparing the values
in Figures 5.1 to 5.8 and by analysing Tables 5.1 to 5.8. It is evident that when the isolator
construction for the structure is taken into consideration, the lateral displacement decreases.
Based on the observed results, we can conclude that structures with base isolators
provide superior displacement resistance, and that structures with 15 stories have larger
displacement than those with 10 stories when comparing storey heights.

5.2 STORY DRIFT

It is characterized as proportion of dislodged displacement of two continuous floor to
height of that floor. It is significant term utilized for research reason in seismic tremor building.

By studying from Table 5.9 to Table 5.16 and comparing their values in fig. 5.9 to 5.16 the
variation in drift is observed as height of the storey increases. It is clearly noticeable that from
equivalent static analysis in isolator building along both X-Y direction there is a reduction in
lateral drift respectively.

5.3.1 Observations and Discussions on time period

By studying from Table 5.17 to Table 20and comparing their values in fig. 5.17 to
fig.20we can see that variation in Time period according to the isolation, by default software
will consider 12 mode shapes in which first three modes are considered for analysis.
It is observed that the value of Time period is more for base isolation structures compared
to without base isolation structures here base isolation structures gives maximum time period.

In the above graph we can observe that the storey shear is maximum for bottom storeys in both
the models and storey is maximum for the floating column with isolatorsi.e 2738.735KN and
floating column without isolators is lesser storey shear 169.4776KN.

5.4.2 Observation and Discussion on Storey Shear

By Studying Table 5.21 to Table 5.28 and comparing in Fig 5.21 to Fig 5.28 we can
conclude that storey shear is highest at the base of the structure or where structure meets the
ground. This is because of bottom storey is level that is directly contact with the ground and
feels the maximum effect of lateral forces.

5.6 BENDING MOMENT

A bending moment is the response induced in aauxiliary structural element when an

external force or moment is applied to the component making the element to bend. The most
well-known or least complex structural element exposed to bending moments is the beam.

In the 10 and 15 storied structure the BM at the FC location is showing the more i.e
35.2393KN-m when compare to the other beams. Bending moment is more in the both
cases FC at middle and corner place.
